She speaks plainly, "Yes I cede any claim I or the town has on the tower. I never thought we had a claim on it. Drake is the dungeon safe?"

*Updated

"Would you lead this band to investigate the tower and bring back word of who controls it?"

Relieved to see both of them enter together she gives them a warm smile. She quickly asks for information, "Thank you both for coming to my summons. Please relay what you can of the happenings in the Harrowstone Prison and what knowledge you may have about the tower. My agents have not been able to enter or find access to the tower."

"I was a barrister in Lepidstadt before, the old mayor helped with a few things but for the most part 'I was thrown into the deep end on my own'. It's also the reason I haven't collected adventurers for this mission. It just kept under more important issues."

"Yes indeed. The previous mayor retired soon after they returned. I sent word for them to join us here and I hope they will accept the invitation. Yes there are all sorts of tales from Lepidstadt. Its as if our problems were just the beginning of theirs. I am not sure what else I can provide in terms of information. If you need any more supplies just ask it and it should be fetched easily enough."

Fatima purses her lips at Cristo’s suggestion but tries not to look too interested. Or not interested enough. It was hard to tell which might be worse.

She tries a stiff-shouldered shrug. ”I’d certainly be willing to take a look at the place. There is time before we’re due back in Lepidstadt.”

She offers, "I have two of the heroes of the Harrowstone Prison coming to speak with us. They have been rather tight-lipped about the goings on there. Perhaps they will speak more to fellow adventurers. I hope Imrick and Calin arrive soon."

The beautiful mayor continues to talk to Cristo and Anapa if you want to participate in the conversation. "Well to be honest some people gave reports that they saw it emerge from the ground through the prison. But that can't be right, no one has seen magic like that in centuries. We only see something like that back when the elves were ruling these lands 800 years ago. We only know that from the elven records, at least what we have left. The town would pay handsomely if someone were to learn more about it and perhaps even find a way to enter the tower."

I like it! You never know what might have changed in the translation. So how many books came with you?

Wouldn't I keep such treasures close and out of your hands!?!

"And with blood from a weapon forged of Fey and Merlin, I am free!" She then vanishes.

The room begins to crumble, crystals fall from the ceiling.

Joe you can move as you wish as Escalavar just wants you to kill her and it can't sense her anymore. You can go North, East, South, or West. West you see more pool. North you see the kitchen where your flowers still remain in the vase she produced. East you see a tunnel. South you see a door.

She responds to your last statement with a flourish of her hair putting it behind her quiping, "Oh yes he was. But soon his sister shall be mine."

She enjoys her nudity perhaps too much, with your hand on her face she just smiles and enjoys your touch but does not respond. Then she looks up at you and asks, "So, you don't want my help?"

Her smile seems to become very devious and she bows without denying it.

"What I am, you mean how could I do such a thing? Well having a mother as a succubus will do that to you. Also it wasn't just my actions that made my true nature come forth. My King, you have broken my curse and I shall be indebted to you for as long as you wish me beside you. I am still Zenli, just my true nature has come to bare." She says with many different inflections making what she says hard to tell is true or not, like she is messing with you.

"I could but what will you offer or do in response to this request if it is fulfilled?" She asks forwardly.

Her smile broadens at the flattery, then she politely responds, "There is nothing to forgive most of my students never return. Yes much has happened. Thank you Joe for the flowers." She takes them and walks over to a table, with a swish of her hand and a few arcane words a vase appears flying through the air and lands safely on the table. She puts the flowers in the vase, spruces them up and turns back to you. "So how may I help you Joe?"

To Joe it feels like you begin falling into the water but before you hit the water you are standing in her Sanctum looking down upon water and seeing the view of your garden.

She smiles at you and waits for you to tongue tie yourself over her appearance, of ravishing nobility.

Seeing all the things that Saronis has shared, Gavin gets excited and, rummaging through his pack, pulls out the many items he found at the bottom of the pool. "OH YEAH! I also found some really amazing stuff. Like this robe that is made of twine, and this silvery cape that looks like it has a breeze of its own, and these tubes, they are cloth, but you can see through them? Then there's this big metal spike, and some simple gloves, OH, and this potion. Yup! Say, miss Lenzi, can you tell me what do they all do as well?"

She also points out what these items are too:

"The ring is worked gold, set with carnelians.
This thin and flexible cotton cord is meant to be wrapped several times around wearer’s waist.
These linen bandages have the same color and softness as the feathers of a dove, but their antiseptic smell suggests a less natural origin.

She points them out one at a time saying their special abilities:
prisoner’s Dungeon ring but has some other latent magic as well.
Belt of tumbling
Bandages of Rapid Recovery"

Once everyone is done with the tombs she collects you all near one of the tunnels, "You have all found the power you need and I hope you the best of luck on your quest. I know how to restore the Ward Stone. Just return it to the place you came in and I will help with the rest of the way. Before you go I offer you one more thing each and some advice. Here are some suits of leather armor, take one if you don't have armor yet. Also make sure it fits for the most part, I do have small ones. Here is the easiest path back, it may not be the fastest but there should not be much problems on the way back to your village. The next tunnel has more hazards and threats but there will be more treasure on that route. The third tunnel will be even harder on you but there is a magical room halfway through that is sure worth the fight. The fourth tunnel you might be ready for when you return with the Ward Stone. The second tunnel will get you home the fastest, using the pendant Maqan has upon the alter at the top of the path. Any questions?"

She smiles at the questions and retorts, "Excellent you will need to be wise in your coming quest. The path of heroes is just a fancy way of saying quest also not adventurers turn out to be heroes. There are so many tombs here because this is where all the heroes of the mountain are lain to rest. Through the power of the mountain there remains make it here. Yes they may have other markers or tombs but to make sure their bodies are not desecrated this tomb was made. You will know which tombs are receptive to you by either a glow, a gut feeling, or a spirit will speak to you."

She goes and welcomes the rest of your group. She no longer holds the guise of an old individual. The bland robe is gone. She walks forwards spinning a circular bladed chakram. Her black robe appears almost like armor with yellow and gold embellishments making it almost a dress at the same time. "Welcome to the Heavenly Tombs! I assume you are with the others. Are you perhaps wanting to follow the path of heroes? If so you should look around at the many tombs, touching one that is receptive to you will likely grant you power, knowledge, or even equipment for your quest. The quest to return the Ward Stone. No I am not your enemy, I am the caretaker here and know much about what goes on in and upon the mountain. Though it saddens me that the Ward Stone is gone it was foretold and not my place to intervene. My task is to allow you to be the heroes you need to be to solve that quest and the others you are meant to fulfill!"

She looks at Varrick unimpressed obviously not liking to repeat herself. But she does with a sigh, "Are you perhaps wanting to follow the path of heroes? If so you should look around at the many tombs, touching one that is receptive to you will likely grant you power, knowledge, or even equipment for your quest. The quest to return the Ward Stone."

She nods to the little goblin.

At him touching the grave stone power flows through him. Nearby on the other side of the fire you see a small cauldron and the whispers of the dead say it is yours with the small kit beside it. masterwork tool for Profession (Cook) and MW Healer's kit.

She notices him and crouches down to look straight into his eyes. He can see she is very beautiful. Her smile widens as she quickly responds warmly, "Dont be sorry. Yes if a spirit thinks you are worthy and you touch the tomb then you can become a hero. You might be surprised, I know at least a dozen goblin heroes in the past decade. You will find them here in the tales of the mountain. Come I will show you some of their tombs. You are right most of the races dont like goblins.

She walks with Cook Cook and takes him to a lit bon fire. She points out the goblin graves and talks about each of them. "Brom Buggidy was an alchemist who strived to burn everything, he died trying to burn a god. Skrit Skettelton was an engineer, he created an automaton and fought with it against many foes, he had many allies including Lillith the Black Blade, human, Zorak the Barbarian, orc, and Thrug the palm master monk, half orc. Last here but there are more, Dooom Bringer, a goblin barbarian who rode velociraptors into battle fighting alongside elves to push back an ogre and giant invasion. See there are goblin heroes, just most goblins are evil. Stand up and show you are not for the world to see."

The woman comes up to be near the dwarf and speaking in perfect dwarvish she states.

As Urdrsk touches the tomb he can feel the power infuse his body, knowledge of how to fight, and the axe he now holds appears glow golden. What were your hero classes again? Level Up!!!

”Your welcome Joe, yes I can be called at any town fountain at least the ones at the center of the towns.” She relays and sends Joe off on his own returning him to his group in a large bubble in the middle of the group conversation as if nearly no time has elapsed even though he knows he was with her at least an hour.

”As ever focusing on others, we can swim another time... It is nice to meet an intelligent weapon, glad to meet you Excaliber.” She says simply covering any emotions she may have shown. She takes you through the motions, words, and the mental images necessary for the spells, taking every chance to touch or caress you as the training takes place. Once done she puts on her surcoat once more and leads Joe towards the room that you teleported into.

Joe you are pretty sure Zenli is human or half elf.

”Thank you, I love to swim. Before the lesson would you like to swim or we can begin now?” She asks as she takes off her surcoat laying it on the back of one of the chairs.

She smiles at Frank’s words and blushes slightly, she nods to him before responding to Joe, ”Come along my paladin, I have much to teach you.” With Joe taking her offered hand she clicks her heels together three times and they become surrounded in bubbles and a moment later only the bubbles remain.

With a pop a large bubble appears close by with someone within, then another pop and the bubble is gone leaving behind a very beautiful prim and proper dressed woman. ”Joe. Greetings and to your friend as well, it is good to see you. What is the reason of my summoning, hmmmm?” She says rather simply as she leans in a bit and absently twirls a loose lock of her own hair.

She nods appreciately and after his request she offers, ”Interesting... a bit prideful, but that is a paladin... yeah I can see it especially with ‘That’ sword. So you may select two cantrips and one first level spell you can cast 3/day. Prestidigitation, that will be your first choice...” She talks you through what words to say, then the motions, and finally helping you visulize the spell in your mind. Lastly she says after an hour or so of practice, ”You have the spell for the most part, keep practicing. Talk with Jellena about your other choices and say my name at a town fountain when you are ready for more training. Sleep well, I know I will teaching is tiring work!” With that said she takes a few steps away, hits her heels together three times and a cloud of bubbles appears where she was standing. They pop rather quickly leaving only a little puddle of liquid behind that is gone in minutes.
